Really high quality on the production. I have a really hard time to handle other channels "sweeping my phone camera all over the board as we play"-style. This type of production is way easier to follow along and appreciate. Hope to see more reports soon! =) Congrats on the win Jester!
Thanks Joakim! We also find it a bit difficult to follow what’s going on with some other battle reports which is what inspired us to make these the way we do. We’re glad you’re enjoying them!
Great video as always guys!! Just so you know… daemonic enegeries kicks in during the roll attack dice stage not when they are resolved so you would have done 2 mortal wounds without having to take a hit first :) really admire you sticking to your guns and not going nurgle!
Many thanks for your support man! You're absolutely right about how Mortal Wounds are applied as well. That's actually how we play, but unless it would make a difference in the final result, we shoot it so that we tally everything at the end simply for ease of editing! I'm definitely tempted to show a nurgle marked legionary team here, but I do have an aversion to following Meta lol. I'm kinda ummming and arring for when these two teams rematch whether to try nurgle or keep the list the same and actually remember my rules properly :D
Would be great to see a rematch but maybe try adding an anointed or a shrivetalon to your lineup! They offer some amazing counters and the shrivetalon always fights first which can be really handy!
As always, super clean battle report, love your editing! And, ofc, congratz Jester! Also, still waiting for Legionary team to see light or proper gods (Nurgle and Khorne).. perhaps with new warriors - Anointed and/or Shrivetalon? Already waiting for next one!
I don't comment on videos very often but your batreps are the easiest to digest for me. I enjoy the work you both put into the videos and learning about a few other factions along the way. I also think taking an annointed in your group is the way to go. They are a fun unit. Not doing nurgle is cool and now you got me wondering about the extra move speed for into the dark. Keep up the great work.
Thank you for the comment and kind words! Funnily enough In currently in the middle of painting up my remaining legionary operatives including the anointed!
@@GrimdarkGamers I'm also halfway through painting my legionaries. I have breachers after them. The annointed is as my friends say, scary on the board and target him asap. Lol.
Best batreps on TH-cam! Intercessors ran away with it in the end but I think more specialist operatives like the anointed and maybe some khorne or nurgle marks would even things up a bit.
@@GrimdarkGamers ha fair! To be honest I've played legionaries a fair bit (but now main intercessors) but I don't think I've ever remembered 5+ crit on my plasma!
@@GrimdarkGamers Yeah, you would have a couple more crits in there for sure and triggered the P1 on the heavy bolter more often. I've been playing pure Tzeentch against intercessors in tournaments lately because Assault Intercessors have enough wounds and melee strength to make it hard to take them out in combat. My preferred team against them is: Aspiring Champ with Fist, Balefire Acolyte, Melta, Chaincannon (suspensor), Icon (bolter and tainted rounds), Shrivetalon (grisly trophy, to be the guy out in front). Focus fire with the icon and chaincannon, keeping the melta in the second line as a really scary counter-threat. If balefire can't get a shot then he Malign Influences one of the gunners instead.
That was a great close game... uuuntil the dice decided to just stop rolling above a 2 for Legion. That's the way it is sometimes. Great battle report as always!
A good game for sure! One niche rules thing that came up a bit this game - psychic powers aren't equipped weapons and as such aren't affected by being injured, so the balefire acolyte *always* hits on 3+ with Life Siphon and Fireblast.
They just kind of dropped it in there in response to a different, but related question. From Core Rules FAQ page 3: *Q: Is an operative equipped with the weapons it can use from psychic powers? For instance, can psychic power weapons be upgraded with rare equipment from the Core Book? A: No. Note that this means being injured won’t affect that weapon’s characteristics.
Tzeentch is really good when one remembers to use their passive ability ;) all jokes aside don't sleep on undivided! Many KT games devolve in to sub-6inch brawls over objectives. Having balanced in those situations is super clutch!
@@GrimdarkGamers Is it a bad time to point out that the Chosen of Chaos Undivided had a free re-roll to use on that second "1" from the overcharged Plasma Pistol on Turn 2? Vicious Reavers is pretty darn good on a lad with Sword and Pistol, after all.
@@martylund8411 nope, thanks for pointing that out because that I hadn’t caught during editing. Shows what happens when you got for more than a month without playing ! I appreciate the help mate.
The first shot of the game on the concealed legionary chosen. Were they not close enough to the barricade to be untargetable? It's hard to tell from the angle of the camera. The balefire charging and shanking the sergeant made me think of my poor boy argel for some reason. Damn erebus to the depths of the warp. As always, v nice batrep. Was nice to see both teams not running the meta standard, even if the legionary suffered for it. Some more specialists could have potenitally made a difference. Bolter fire just isn't very efficient against 15 wounds and 3+ save.
He was just beyond outside of being able to be concealed by the barricade. That was a proper “thousand yard stare into the distance wondering how I could be so stupid” moment 😄 15 wound primaris are absolute beasts. Even if I want to stay out of the Meta lists and experiment, you’re absolutely right. Bolter discipline just isn’t that effective against primaris might!
Excellent battle report. If only the Black Legion had been more assiduous in their devotions to the dark gods, maybe they’d have not gotten slapped so hard. Great job Jester! You used your team to maximum effect & it paid dividends. Any chance you’ll be heading Into the Gallowdark?
Many thanks! It was quite the face palm moment for me 😅 That’s not to take away from Jester who played well, especially with that masterful play with the grenadier! We will absolutely be venturing into the Gallowdark. Having finished painting up a new kill team recently, my current project is now making my way through all of that terrain!
I’m still working on mine. I made the mistake of getting all the details on my test piece, so it’s taking a while to do all of the other walls to the same standard. Don’t get me wrong, it looks fantastic after the oil wash, but it’s not a simple paint job.
At 10min when you moves up the container, after shooting you dropped with dash, is that legal move? I think you cannot do that and you have to climb up and down and cannot dash like you did.
Yup, legal move. He dropped, he didn’t climb down. When you drop, you round down any incremental distances of circle. A vertical distance of less than circle (which the container is, barely), is ignored.
If the vertical distance is less then 2 inch, you can drop for free. Otherwise you are right and he needs to account the total distance from the drop to his dash
FINALLY an intercession team NOT using the “Rapid” and “Methodical” chapter tactics! You love to see it!
Gotta keep it interesting!
Wut, Rapid for sure i see alot, but methodical? I always do Rapid and Durable for that sweet -1 on all crits.
@@TheRainfield Methodical + Angel of Vengeance ploy (or whatever it’s called) is the bane of my Corsairs’ existence
@@TheRainfield unyielding and durable are a really nice combo! I'm painting mine intercessors as Salamanders, so I love to have them super resistant!

@@GrimdarkGamers I love the camera work like Nalta pointed out and the perfect amount of commentary.
Thank you, we’re really glad you like the content !
Been really excited for this one! I love your guys' production values. Lots of batreps are hard to follow, but yours are always super clear. 🙂
Thanks mate, we appreciate the support!
I really like how you guys show how the game plays out and lessons learned where you forget something, sharing with my other Kill team Crew.
Great content guys, imo the premier Kill Team battle report channel on youtube. Hope to see your channel get the subscribers it deserves.
Many thanks man, we appreciate it!
Fab! I like that you both say what you are trying to do between TP.
nice, i've been looking for a battle report channel where you can actually see whats going on for ages, thank you
Glad you enjoyed it, welcome aboard!

That’s a good idea! I’ve got the models half painted so it shouldn’t take too long to finish them off.
My favorite KT batreps on YT. Always glad to see a new one.
Thanks so much mate, we’re thankful for your support!
Great batrep. Love the variety you can field with a mix of Intercessors/Assault Intercessors and chapter tactics.
Thanks! The intercession team offers a lot of choice and is pretty strong. Very good starting team for those new to the game.
As always, super clean battle report, love your editing! And, ofc, congratz Jester!

@@GrimdarkGamers Honestly, I don't think anyone was until it came up in an faq like 2 months ago, and it only affects like 3 or 4 units in the game.

I imagine that’s extra true on ITD games! I’m looking forward to trying that.

@@GrimdarkGamers oh ok, thx, I learned something then, thank you, I though you always have to climb no matter if going up or down.
I feel like I have to ask: why are the intercessors' muzzles not drilled?
